Trombone craft shape – plywood silhouette, 5–50 cm

The brass choir is celebrating an anniversary, the music school is hosting its summer concert, or you'd like to make something musical with the children – and you're still missing the right motif. With this wooden trombone for crafting, you have the silhouette of the brass instrument ready cut in your hands and can get going straight away: paint it, decorate it, hang it up.

Why this wooden trombone makes a difference

Place one at every guest's seat for a club anniversary. Use it as window decoration in the rehearsal room. Or paint it yourself as a gift. The clear silhouette shows straight away what it's all about: music. There's no need to search for ages for decorations with musical instruments. You have one motif that you can design again and again. With little effort, you get a consistent look where motif, colour and occasion match.

Material & finish

The trombone is laser-cut from 3 mm plywood – which gives it smooth edges with the typical brown border that lends the motif a finely drawn outline. The wood is untreated, neither varnished nor glazed, so it's ready for whatever you have in mind: paint it, oil it, decorate it or simply leave it natural. Wood is a purely natural material – each trombone varies slightly in shade and grain, and small knots may occur. That's exactly what makes every piece unique.

How to use the wooden trombone

• Crafting with children: every child paints their own trombone – and in the end, a whole colourful brass section hangs in the music school's rehearsal room.
• For a concert or society anniversary: a motif at every place or on the invitation – and the theme of the evening is clear before the first note is played.
• As a money gift for musicians: stick the banknote behind the small trombone. An envelope becomes a gift with a visible link to music.
• For Christmas decorations: small trombones on ribbon in the window or on the tree – painted or natural, in keeping with the festive sound of trombones.
• In a shop or music store: put large cutouts in the shop window. They are quick to put up and ready to use all season.

Good to know about the trombone

The trombone has been closely linked with church and community music for centuries – the tradition of brass choirs in Protestant church music dates back to the 19th century. That's why the motif is especially well suited to anniversaries, concerts and gifts for brass choirs, wind orchestras and music societies.

Care & durability

There's not much you need to do: store the cutouts in a dry place and protect untreated wood from prolonged moisture – that way the shape and surface stay looking good for a long time. If you paint or oil the trombone, it's also better protected against dirt.

• Available singly or in sets of 10, 25, 50 or 100
• The wooden cutout is supplied in its natural state, without paint or decoration

Frequently asked questions

Can I paint or decorate the trombone? Yes. The plywood is untreated and can be painted, oiled, decorated or designed in any other way.

Why does the cutout have a brown edge? The trombone is laser-cut – the brown edge is created during cutting and is part of its typical look, while the edges themselves are smooth.

Do all cutouts look the same? The shape is identical, but wood as a natural material is not: shade and grain vary, and small knots are normal and make every piece unique.

Where is the wooden trombone made? In our own production in Pößneck, Thuringia, Germany.

In the end, it's not about a wooden cutout. It's about the moment when the hall is decorated, the painted trombones are hanging in the window and the music can begin. Just choose your size and quantity – you design the rest.
